1.
MY VIRTUES WITHER IN THE LIGHT // I’M RUNNING LIKE A CHICKEN WITH ITS HEAD CUT OFF // I FELL IN AT THE DEEP END // AND IF YOU PLEASE I’D LIKE THESE HIDEOUS DEEDS ZIPPED UP TIGHT // BUT YOU’LL ADMIT SOME PLEASURES CAN’T BE DENIED // OR DOES THE SENTENCE STICK IN YOUR THROAT? // UGLINESS ON THE OUTSIDE PALES IN TIME // WHEN I HOLD YOU SAFE IN MY ARMS // HERE’S WHAT YOU GET FOR ALL YOUR SINS // A GILDED PALACE WITH ITS DOORS KICKED IN // A FETCHING THRONE OF DUST AND STONES // BUT OUTSIDE THE SUN STILL SHINES AND I’LL RIDE AWAY HOME // WHY DID YOU DO IT AT ALL? // AN INVOCATION OF THE LIES ON MY TONGUE // SO SUMMON IT UP // WHY WALK WHEN YOU CAN CRAWL?
2.
SO I’LL TAKE IT LIKE A MAN // ANY WAY THAT I CAN // WE BREAK LIKE WAVES UPON THE SAND // THE SKY IS FALLING IN // AND I CAN’T LET YOU TAKE HIM FROM ME // LAND BREAKS AND MOUNTAINS SHAKE APART // STRETCHED TIGHT, THE SKIN ACROSS MY COLD HARD FISTS // DEFACED BY DIRT, ABSORBS THE LIGHT // BUT I CAN’T LET YOU TAKE HIM FROM ME // I CAN’T LET YOU // UNLOVED I LIE WHEN THE EVENING COMES THE DAY WILL DIE // BUT I CAN’T LET YOU TAKE HIM FROM ME
